Steve Brynes asked Jimmie who he admired and he mentioned Rick Mears (which I knew). But then JJ said that of drivers that race today that it would be Tony Stewart. He said that he has ton of respect for what he has acomplished in all types of racing and on the ownership side. That he is alot of fun to hang out with.

I was a little surprised I knew JJ kinda looked up to Tony and rspected him but he put him ahead of Gordon.

JJ also said if he wasn't on the 48 team he would't had all the success he has had.

most drivers that have any sense will say if it wasnt for the team they are on, they wouldnt have the success, because its not just the driver, it takes everyone on the team, the right combination of people to make things click...
